Abstract
Cross-talk between gut microbiota and the nervous system in the pathophysiology of neurological diseases has become a recent focus of interest. The underlying mechanisms are complex, and we suggest that they might involve gut bacterial metabolite-induced epigenetic modulations of neurodegenerative disorders. Advances in epigenetic techniques could provide the key to understanding the epigenetics of the gut–brain axis.
